Annual Evansville Leaf Pick-Up Runs Thru Mid December

The Evansville Water & Sewer Utility announces that the Annual Fall Leaf Pick-up will run from Monday, October 22nd through Friday, December 14th. This annual service is available to city residents who pay for trash service with their water bill, including newly-annexed areas. Apartment complexes, mobile home communities and business/commercial customers are not eligible.

Leaves must be contained in Bio-Degradable Plastic or Paper Leaf Bags or in containers and be placed in manageable, organized piles on the same day of trash service but separate from where the normal weekly trash is collected. The bags should be placed at the pickup location before 6 a.m. on the normal days of collection. These bags should only be placed at the pickup location on your normal day of trash collection.

Leaves not in Bio-Degradable bags that do not meet these requirements will not be picked up. Residence with leaves not in the Bio-Degradable Bags will be notified to re-bag their leaves in Bio-Degradable bags and they will be picked up on the following week.

If a customer has put their Leaves out according to the requirements above yet feels they were missed, they can call Republic Services at 812-424-3345 within two days to report a possible missed pick-up.
